Arizona takes another step forward on crypto adoption. Senate Bill SB1043 cleared its second reading, moving closer to becoming law. Once passed, it would empower state agencies across Arizona to accept Bitcoin for tax payments, fees, and fines. The mechanism is straightforward: agencies collect BTC, then convert it to USD as needed to cover state obligations. This represents meaningful progress in bridging traditional government finance with digital assets—Arizona joins a growing list of jurisdictions exploring practical pathways for Bitcoin integration into public systems.

It should have been like this a long time ago; the government has finally woken up. Arizona's move is quite sincere.
